Toys and Games Reviews of Halo 3 Series 3 - Elite Combat Soldier

Customer Review: Finally !
Summary: 5 Stars

I agree with everything Jonpaul from Oregon says.
This is the one we've all been waiting for - sculpting, details; everything is 100% on.
A couple of specifics to add - While the Elite is more "poseable" than the Arbiter, he's still at about the same level as the Brutes. This means no "crouch jump," or total upper body articulation, but who cares...
Also, the hands are fairly tailored for the enclosed plasma rifles, so certain weapons may prove awkward to hold. I noticed that each rifle's handle is curved to better accommodate its particular hand designation. Remove the pegs, grab a small tool for prying and apply some force. Both of mine proved pretty sturdy for the process.

All in all, a tremendous upgrade in comparison to other brands' Elites, and a sign of continuing quality from MacFarlane. Not a hint of disappointment.

Customer Review: Quite a good toy
Summary: 4 Stars

Just received this and one of the Master Chief variants.

The Elite is really detailed and quite nice.

The only downsides I have found with it are:

1) The fins on the rear of the plasma rifles are fragile, if you drop it or the toy falls over, be sure to anticipate those fins getting broken/compressed.

2) You can only store one of the rifles on the toy at a time. I can only find one peghole on the back. In order for the character to hold the rifles in his hands, you need to remove the holding pegs. Quite easy to lose that small piece of plastic.

Otherwise, a good toy and looks good.

Customer Review: Great Figure
Summary: 4 Stars

I went to Walmart one day, and saw this Halo 3 elite, so I bought it, and when I got it out, I saw how detailed it was, but this elite doesn't move around very well, but I guess that it is ment for display. I also had trouble getting the Plasma Rifles into his hand, and the box says that the Rifles could be stored onto it's legs, but I only found the hole on it's back. When I took his helmet off, I could get it back on, but it didn't stay too well. Also, some people said it would come with a Plasma Grenade, except it didn't. It does look like the Minor combat elites from the game though. It is a great figure, and is better than the Arbiter.

Customer Review: Very Cool Elite Action Figure
Summary: 5 Stars

Even though I just got this Elite Action Figure, I could already tell that the detail of the figure is just mind-blowing. It is obvious that there is a great deal of effort put into it. The helmet is removable. The shoulders and chest armor can also be removed. Take note that the pegs are small so you should be careful not to lose it. Lots of articulation. It is a very good action figure. I do suggest buying one of these. Oh yeah I dont seem to be able to find the hole on the figure's leg to put the weapon on.

Customer Review: Very nicely detailed
Summary: 4 Stars

As a huge Halo fangirl I would say that the figure was great and very nicely detailed , infact it looks exactly like an Elite , unlike the Halo 2 Elites , they're faces were way different than the normal Halo 2 model in the game, but I would've liked the Halo 3 Elite figure more if it was taller like the Halo 2 figures , I just find 6 inches too short. i would have loved it if it was at least 11 inches. But overall , It's a fantasic figure for hardcore Halo fans and collectors.
